13 Things People Believe In Different Countries
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 07. 2024
- Different countries have different superstitions. Some of them are even related to avoiding a real danger (like not wearing red during storms). But of course, most of these beliefs just seem bizarre for foreigners. For example, Koreans never give their partners shoes, Russians never give yellow flowers to their loved ones, and Italians try not to spill olive oil. Fear of the number 4, being happy after stepping in dog poo, never putting keys on the table... No, these aren’t some strange ticks but just some examples of superstitions that different nations believe in!
By the way, in this video are three cats hidden. If you can spot all of them, you're more attentive than most people!
TIMESTAMPS:
Chinese people avoid the number 4 0:48
Swedish people don't put their keys on the table 1:53
British people always say “rabbit, rabbit” on the first day of the month 2:30
Italians try not to spill olive oil 3:35
Koreans never give their partners shoes 4:29
Icelanders believe that knitting outside prolongs winter 5:23
Japanese people never sleep facing north 6:03
Germans often knock on the table in a pub 6:43
French people consider stepping in dog poop lucky 7:39
Filipinos never wear red during storms 8:29
Norwegians never whistle towards the sun 9:08
Russians never give yellow flowers to their loved ones 9:49
Spanish people eat 12 grapes on New Year's Eve 11:41

SUMMARY:
- According to Chinese traditions, the number 4 is part of the unlucky group. The reason why it's considered a bad number is because in Chinese it sounds really similar to the word “death.”
- In Swedish culture, setting keys on the table is considered really bad luck. Historically speaking, this superstition goes way back in the day when prostitutes would advertise their availability exactly like that.
- You have to say the word “rabbit” 3 times in a row first thing in the morning on the first day of the month. If you do exactly so, you'll get a present before the end of the month!
- Italians believe that accidentally spilling olive oil will bring bad luck and misery.
- If you have a Korean boyfriend or girlfriend, one thing is certain: they'll never buy you a new pair of shoes. And it's not because they don't love you, it’s just that they’re afraid of losing you!
- Icelandic superstition forbids knitting on your doorstep during winter. Otherwise, you’ll prolong the cold season. So, if you’re ever visiting Iceland in the winter, you better keep your knitting indoors!
- At funerals in Japan, the casket is always positioned with the deceased’s head to the north. That's why Japanese people are extremely careful while setting up beds in their homes.
- Some time ago, all pub tables were made of oak, which was believed to be a holy tree that no evil can touch. From that moment on, Germans started to knock on this holy wood.
- People in France believe that stepping in dog poop with your left foot means that good luck awaits you (after you clean the poo off your shoes, of course).
- The Philippines faces its fair share of tropical storms and even has certain superstitions connected to it.
- Norwegians believe that when you whistle in the direction of the sun, you basically tempt fate and call the rain.
- Russians believe that yellow flowers signify separation and divorce.
- The Spanish eat one grape with each bell strike at midnight on New Year’s Eve going into New Year’s Day.

BRIGHT SIDE hi
FIRST TO FOUND THEM🤗🤗🤗🤗
I found all the cats
I'm from the uk and I've never heard of or heard someone saying rabbit rabbit
I don't think that is true
It's not
Me too I'm from uk
I'm British to and It's not true
Because they don’t anymore
why did I get so mad at this?! xD I am from the UK and I've NEVER heard ANYONE say anything about this
In germany you can't congratulate someones birthday before the day
In India, we used to say that if a black cat crosses the road, it symbolises bad luck.
What will works look like without number four what will alarms distance look like without the number four what will speak or how will speed be measured
In India if you give someone a black rose they die.
gosh 😶😳
I am a German, and I also don't put my keys on the table or anywhere else, where I could possibly misplace them and forget where I put them. near the house door there is a board with hooks on the wall and we all place the keys on to the hooks on that board. I thought this would be standard everywhere. At least here in Germany it is common practise.
I live in Britain and dont see people say rabbit rabbit
WHY NOT?
Because He Doesn't live in the UK.
@@viktorbarna822 he does?? + Why are replying to your own comment
Rabbit rabbit
Hahaha Brittish people never say "Rabbit Rabbit" on any day of the month. NEVER.

The older generations do. And it's white rabbit

I don't know about the yellow color, but giving the even number of flowers is a bad thing in Russia. The reason is that the even number of flowers is only to be placed on the graves
Russia? Sheik? What.... Russia never have sheiks... So I dont understand it... And yes I know that number thing for sure :)
Im also from Russia and never heard about problems with yellow color flowers!! ))
It's not as common these days, but yes yellow flowers are associated with breaking up in Russia. Usually it just means that couples wouldn't give yellow bouquets to one another though, and maybe friends would avoid that. Using yellow flowers in arrangements that aren't tied to relationships is more accepted.
With the even and uneven numbers of flowers fact i know but i'm not sure about yellow. Well we never got yellow flowers even if it was a bouquet of different flowers there was never a single yellow flower. Maybe it is true
MD SH You'd notice if you live there it's not the most popular flower color.
Nowadays this particular superstition isn't as known or cared for, plus in some contexts yellow flowers are okay, like mimosa or yellow tulips for Women's Day to signify spring/sun, but if you actually recall, a very popular song was made in the 90s about yellow tulips - messengers of breakup. (Наташа Королева: Желтые Тюльпаны, вестники разлуки, цвета запоздалой утренней звезды...)
I'm Filipino from the Philippines, and I've never heard about us avoiding red colored clothes during storms. 😐
I heard of it .because marites said if you wear red during storm you may strike a lightning
1:34 - It says 4m right there on that blue board xD
I'm lifelong UK ....I have never heard of saying "Rabbit Rabbit".
Yeah they never say that. It’s usually “pinch punch first day of the month, no returns.
@@mxoi9308 pinch and a punch ..yes
But rabbit??
Lol ..
Nor me!
Iain Henderson : That's probably because some of these are just a figment of someone's imagination.
In Ireland some of us say “white rabbit” 3 times first thing in the morning on the first day of the month, so maybe it’s us instead of the UK?
I'm from Philippines actually it doesn't matter what you wear during a storm or something😲

Brit here, literally nobody says rabbit, rabbit, rabbit.... we do often say (and do) "pinch and a punch, first day of the month" and if you don't say "no returns" or aren't fast enough the person you just pinched and punched will return with "flick and a kick for being so quick"
I say rabbits that's what some people do

Well, I am asian and not scared
Ann Mason My mom told me never choose a bad number for a license plate!
3:45 my sister just spilled olive oil on the table this afternoon 😅
Lol
Tardar Sauce (grumpy cat: RIP) finding the number 4 on the part about Chinese folks not liking the number 4 since it sounds a lot like death.... ouch. :(
at 1:36
I'm in Italy and never, ever, in the 26 years of living here, heard of any misfortune in combination with spilling olive oil!
I'm from Sweden, and that we don't put keys on tables. So so true! We have special places to hang them or bowls to put the keys in.
Yessir im Swedish we do that
I'm from Japan, and I haven't heard of the sleeping with your head facing north, thing.... but there was one superstition that was really popular. Whenever you see a hearse, you have to cover your thumb. It's supposed to prevent your parents from dying because the thumb is the "parent" finger. My mom used to do it all the time and my dad, being American, didn't understand it and would make fun of her for it.
Hello..Im a Filipino from Tacloban City theres one tradition that if one of your relative is dead do not call their name anymore...because it will bring badluck

British person here! I’ve never met someone who says rabbit rabbit on the first day of the month, this type of thing would usually just be a family tradition rather then being a cultural tradition or maybe even a village or town’s tradition. Just thought I’d state because of the probable miscorrect information! 👍👍

I didn't know about the olive oil thing, but my mom always tells me not to put the bread upside-down because if i do the sun won't rise the next day. i have no idea where this superstition came from, but i always found it very funny 😂
Can you tell where are you from? I heard similar superstition about bread in Poland. Maybe not so dramatic but my mom often says that I shouldn't put bread upside down because it will bring me bad luck.
@@KB-lq4dp my mother's family is from Tuscany in Italy! Not even close, how weird 😂
Try it and u will never believe anyother superstitious' again..
My mom says the world is going to end if I do it. We are from Bulgaria though
(Way more dramatic)
I'm from Bulgaria and we have similar superstition, but except bad luck, it also means that you don't respect the food and the work of the man who made it for you.

Wow
Seriously bright side, I'm British and in all my 52 years I've never heard of anyone saying rabbit rabbit rabbit at the beginning of a month ever, this must be some ancient superstition that's been lost in the mitsts of time or someone's giving you dodgie information, rabbit apart from the animal rabbit or to rabbit is London slang for someone who talks too much, there always rabbiting or they know how to rabbit otherwise I have no idea where you got this information
Big Daddi ikr, I don't originally come from Britain but even I know that we don't say that here
They’ve got it mixed up with the old tradition of “white rabbits” on the first of the month and “black rabbits” on the last. I’m 45 but had old grandparents so I remember it well. My parents are of the “pinch punch” generation so the rabbits were only heard from my grandparents.
Everything in this video inst true
Becasue I am from flippin sweden and we often put our keys on our tables
plus its just the old generation!
As a Welshman, I have NEVER heard anybody say, “Rabbit, rabbit.”
I’ve heard older people say, “White rabbit”, but not what was said in the video.
I'm Norwegian and I have never heard about that whistle towards the sun thing. :D :D :D I have even seen many others whistling towards the sun all the time
